Former President Jimmy Carter, having apparently succumbed to senility, is now wondering around southwest Virginia going to McDonald’s. Last Thursday, he went to the Hillsville franchise for a quick lunch with his wife Rosalynn — he ordered a salad, a sundae, and coffee. Yesterday afternoon, he went to the McDonald’s at the Lakeside Plaza in Salem, once again with the former First Lady and several mystified Secret Service agents.

If you see Carter at your McDonald’s franchise, you are urged to notify the authorities.
